~ In a recent statement, Governor Greg Abbott praised the State Board of Education (SBOE) for their approval of the Texas Education Agency's (TEA) Bluebonnet Learning reading and math instructional materials. The governor believes that this is a crucial step towards improving the quality of education in Texas and providing students with the necessary fundamentals to succeed.

According to Governor Abbott, these educational materials are voluntary and free for schools and teachers to use. They will also be available online for parents to access, ensuring that all young Texans have access to high-quality, grade-level appropriate curricula. The governor is confident that this will lead to improved student outcomes across the state.

Under this new initiative, school districts will receive additional state funding if they choose to use the SBOE-approved materials. Furthermore, if districts voluntarily opt-in to use Bluebonnet Learning, they will receive a second stream of additional funding to cover printing costs. This makes it easier for schools to adopt these materials and provide their students with a top-notch education.

Bluebonnet Learning aligns with the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS) and covers core subjects such as math, reading, science, and more. This was made possible by House Bill 1605, which was passed by the Texas Legislature last year and signed into law by Governor Abbott. The bill requires TEA to provide Open Education Resource textbooks for key grades, including Pre-K through 8th grade.

To ensure that these materials meet high standards of quality and suitability, TEA has appointed an advisory board as directed by House Bill 1605. These approved materials can be viewed on TEA's website.

Governor Abbott's statement highlights his commitment to improving education in Texas and providing students with the tools they need for success. With Bluebonnet Learning now available for schools and families alike, it is expected that student outcomes will continue to improve across the state.
